The best 60 foot times I've seen on a pro touring car is in the mid 1.7 second range and that was bad penny on drag radials. Hell it might have been 1.8's. That's pitiful in the drag world.

... Don't forget, Steve did that by using a special torque management device called a clutch.
I just remember that image of his car launching pouring smoke from under the car, instead of behind it. Still, I'd say a burnt up clutch was worth the Wally he won.
Anyway, Steve said he is going to be getting Penny ready for a little drag strip action. One of the cool things about the Lateral Dynamics three link is that the upper control arm has a few different mounting settings so he can get more anti-squat out of it than he had when running at Fontana last year when he set those times.
